We can’t get enough of the Alfa Romeo 4C and the show stealing sports car is writing a lot of the headlines at the 2013 Frankfurt International Motor Show. Thanks for the carbon fibre safety cell and aluminium crash structure this is a light and safe sports car. But no one at the Frankfurt event will be asking questions about the car’s safety or its weight when it looks great and performs even better.
Power comes from a free-revving 1.8 litre four-cylinder turbo which is also made from aluminium. The output is 240bhp and 260 lb-ft of torque which create a 0-62mph time of 4.5 seconds. The power’s delivered to the rear wheels through a twin-clutch six-speed transmission and double wishbone suspension with MacPherson struts help the Alfa sports car put the power down. The show car sits on serious rubber with P205/40R18 at the front and P235/35R19 on the rear. The interior is made from the finest materials and focused on the driver. The seats are designed to keep the driver in place during hard cornering but remain comfortable at all times. There’s 107 litres of space within for storage so this is a reasonably practical sports car.
There’s also space on Alfa’s stand for the 2014 Alfa Romeo Giulietta which has been modified to now include new exterior colours, redesigned alloys and new seats. Power comes from a 2.0 litre JTDM MultiJet engine which produces 150bhp and 206 lb-ft of peak torque.
The Frankfurt event continues until 22nd September so we’ll continue to bring you the latest from the show throughout next week.
